Reconfigure, v.

1964 M. MCLUHAN, Understanding Media, II. xxxi. 313, "The viewer of the TV mosaic, with technical control of the image, unconsciously re-configures the dots into an abstract work of art."

Reconfiguration, n.

1969 Word Study, Apr. 5/2, "A nonengineer might be satisfied with ‘Change the base drawing’, but since the engineer knows that the drawing is a configuration, any modification to it is naturally a reconfiguration."

EDITORIAL PROCESS

All submissions to Reconfigurations are evaluated via double-blind peer-review: each work is sent anonymously to two readers for independent assessments. Solicited materials, including book reviews, also undergo this procedure. In most cases, members of the journal’s Editorial Board evaluate submissions, but sometimes external reviewers contribute to our editorial process. Results following split-votes are determined by the Editor. Average time from submission to evaluation and reply: seven weeks or less._____

"Special thanks to Reconfigurations, a nifty journal in the form of a blog." --RonSilliman_____

WYSIWYG: 1982 Byte, Apr. 26 4/2, "‘What you see is what you get’ (or WYSIWYG) refers to the situation in which the display screen portrays an accurate rendition of the printed page." 1982 Economist, 1 May 8, "If he wishes to converse with computer buffs, he will have to cope with neologisms such as ‘wysiwyg’ (what you see is what you get), pronounced ‘whizziwig’." 1984 Sci. Amer., Sept. 54/3, "Perhaps the most important principle is WYSIWYG (‘What you see is what you get’): the image on the screen is always a faithful representation of the user’s illusion." --OED
